  1. The jug of 4 liter stuff was nasty people. And let me tell ya this morning my booty is killing me. I guess it's all worth it in the long run. Can't wait to start losing some serious pounds;-)
  2. Thanks everyone, getting excited and scared.
  3. K everyone I'm really nervous now and scared. Does the pain afterwards hurt as bad as labor or is it tolerable. Fixing to pack my bag and get ready for the new chapter in my life. Wish me luck my sleeve friends.
  4. I get sleeved on the 23rd too. Getting very excited but nervous. I hate pain but I can't wait to get started on my new body.
  5. Omg! I so hated that!!!
  6. Thanks for advice it's just a bottle of only 4 liters. That big and I've been on liquid for awhile now
  7. Did anyone have to drink the big bottle of liquid laxative before surgery? Did y'all drink it or pass? Being on liquids for 7 days do you really have to drink this mess?
  8. I have surgeryThursday, I'm so nervous and scared. But I am glad it's finally here after 9 months of doctors visits and such.
  9. That's great advise, I will ask if they can remove it the same time. That would make it easier than two surgeries
  10. Really trying to tough it out cause I get sleeved Thursday. Sure don't want nothing getting in the way after this journey.
  11. Im on my liquid diet and have been for 6 days. My question is: did anyone gallbladder start hurting in their lower right side in your back?
  12. Thank you it does help knowing it will be much easier after surgery. I have lost 11 pounds just in 5 days
  13. Thank you babyblue4all2c. I feel stupid now cause I think it was all in my head, lol. Not really hungry but I thought I was. Hope that doesnt sound too crazy
  14. Today makes 5 days I hadn't ate nothing. But with everyone else eating I dug around in my freezer and start reading labels. I found sausage and it had 0 carbs and 0 sugar so I caved in and had some. Now I feel horrible and scared because I don't won't to cancel my surgery which is only 3 days away. I have got to take something Wednesday for my bowls called in by my surgeon do you think I will be ok since I swear not to eat nothing else?
  15. Your one day ahead of me, good luck
  16. Do you take that before surgery?
  17. So it didn't mess up your surgery? I hope not, cause I ate one but I pealed it first.
  18. Did y'all still continue taking vitamins on pre op?
  19. So you actually ate one on ur pre op diet and it was ok? Ur liver still shrank?
  20. Was wondering can u have a pickle on pre op diet? There no carbs or sugars
  21. Thank you everyone. I am going to stop worrying and try to enjoy my excitement of the chance of a life time.

    Looks great
  23. Thank you for the advise, I am getting in protein and taking vitamins also getting in alot of water. The shakes are just hard to get down.
  24. I hate the protein shakes, I've order some chewable protein. What kind of cream soup? And you drank milk? I think I can do that.
